Our Team

After completing my first year of hospital jobs in the UK I moved to Perth, and subsequently worked in hospitals and general practice in WA, Tasmania and England whilst completing general practice training in Tasmania and England.

Between 2004-2014 I was a GP partner in a practice in SE England and latterly also on the board of a health trust  for 500,000 patients, with responsibility for health care pathways  in cancer and long term illness.

My areas of interest are women's health, children and care of long term conditions such as lung disease and heart disease.

I returned to live in Hobart in 2014 with my husband Dr Steve Rogers and our three children and enjoy walking and playing the cello in local orchestras and chamber groups.

Available for appointments at our Bellerive surgery.

I returned to Tasmania in 2004 and locumed for Dr Saul and Dr Jeanneret in 2005 and 2006 and loved the community and the practice. I have been working at Lauderdale and now Shoreline full-time since 2007.

 I love helping people, families and their communities and you can only do that in General Practice.  General Practice is a great medical speciality and I have always been interested in mentoring new doctors and students.
I am interested in all aspects of  Family General Practice and providing what communities need.
I am married with 3 children and my time in WA converted me to the "purple' team.

Before moving to beautiful Hobart, I worked for two years in a primary access clinic in Kings Cross, Sydney as a Sexual Health Registrar. My partner and I are very much enjoying bushwalking and camping around Tasmania. 

Available for appointments at our Bellerive surgery.

I graduated from the University of Tasmania in 2012 and have worked at the Gold Coast University Hospital for the last four years.  My hobbies include sailing, art and design and hiking. 

Available for appointments at our Lauderdale and Shoreline surgeries.
 

I have worked in Mackay and Brisbane before moving to Tasmania for general practice training. I also have experience in palliative care, having worked at the Royal Hobart Hospital in 2014. I have completed a diploma in palliative medicine. I have been working in general practice since 2014 and my special interest is in palliative care.

I enjoy reading and playing with our cat.

I obtained my medical degree from Griffith University in Qld and my special interests include skin cancer, travel and sports medicine. I love the outdoors and spend my free time either in the ocean or in the mountains.

Obtained MBBS with University of Tasmania in 1982.

ry and paediatrics.

I am married to Dr Catherine Kelly, and we have 3 children.

After working as GPs in Tasmania we then spent 10 years as GP partners in SE England, gaining gaining much experience in chronic disease, and working closely together. I am particularly interested in the prevention and follow up of chronic conditions such as heart disease, lung disease and diabetes, and was involved in programs for this in the UK.  Our family returned to Tasmania in 2014 for the lifestyle it offers, and are keen to get their children into the outdoors as they approach their teenage years.

Available for appointments at our Bellerive surgery.

Prior to starting my general practice training I completed 4 years at the RHH working in various areas, including a year working with the geriatrics/aged care team.  I also work part-time for General Practice Training Tasmania in a registrar support role and have recently completed 6 months at the Sandy Bay Clinic with a focus on travel medicine.  

I love the continuity of general practice, as well as the broad scope of people I get to meet.  I like that in general practice I get to see and manage a wide variety of conditions, but my main interests are aged care, women’s health, paediatrics and travel medicine.

Outside of work I like to spend time with my husband and fur-child.  I’m a long suffering Essendon supporter and a happy Pittsburgh Penguins fan. 

Available for appointments at our Lauderdale surgery.

I travelled for seven years working in NSW and Queensland.  I settled back in Lauderdale in 1990 and began general practice with Tim Jackson and a short time later, Cath Jeanneret. I am married and have three children.  I've always liked general practice but with special interest in health promotion, sports medicine and workers compensation.  

I really enjoy Lauderdale and the Eastern Shore for the sailing, kayaking and beach life.
